All these companies play the frogs in a pot game. Slowly make things shittier and shittier in tiny increments and everyone's sitting there in boiling water eventually like "this is fine." I mean there's still people with cable TV in 2024. And Netflix has done nothing but get worse for the last 3-4 years and their subscriber count just had a decent boost last year so they were like "lol sweet, we're canceling basic ad free tier in 2024, eat shit"
It's felt pretty damn nice to finally give all these companies the boot. They got too greedy. But there'll still be hordes of people just happily paying an ever rising price for this stuff I guess.
